Listing broker remarks

Needham Heights buyers, this one is worth another look. Nearly 3,000 sq ft, built in 2005, and now positioned at $1,499,000, this home offers more flexibility than you might expect. The main level includes a fireplaced living room, family room, bright eat-in kitchen with plenty of cabinetry and pantry space, plus a dining room that could easily become a first-floor bedroom if needed. Upstairs are a spacious primary suite with walk-in closet and private bath, two additional bedrooms and a dedicated office. The finished walk-up attic adds another bedroom and bonus room, with plumbing and electrical already roughed in for a future bath. And if you’re thinking “but where would everything else go?” the high-ceilinged basement offers even more room to work with. Recent updates include refinished hardwoods on the first floor, new hardwood upstairs, and new granite in the kitchen and baths. Add a flat fenced yard, patio, private way, and easy access to Needham Heights schools, shops, restaurants, commuter rail and Route 95/128. A lot of house, a lot of options, and a new price point that makes this one hard to overlook.
